I am proud to say that I’ve only seen one movie in this list – I think that it’s a good thing 🙂

I did a quick check on IMDB, and all movies rate between 3.5 and 6.3. My take on IMDB ratings is that if the rating is above 7, it’s a great movie to watch; if it’s below 3, it’s so bad, it’s good. Anything in between is, well, bad. “Streets of San Fancisco” was a 70’s TV series and it rated 7.2, but I think that’s only ‘cos Arnold Schwarzenegger starred in one episode.

Lordy, I like that one! Firstly, that Mission Impossible II thing. I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who thought that movie was absolutely ridiculous. And then the Trek one – soo funny! That alien looks like a zombie – arms out, lurching from side to side, going “Urgh!”, and not noticing when it’s hit. You’d think that an alien being would at least move in a way that looks realistic and alive. Ah well, it was the 70s. I love that comment about Sylar kicking Klingon ass and Kirk having a threesome with blue aliens. Oh, and Piranha II. I always wanted to watch that (JC fan I am. Cameron, not Christ. Though he’s alright too I suppose. 😛 ) But now I’m glad I didn’t see it. I mean, why didn’t they just make a movie about killer bats or killer mockingbirds? That’s what they look like. But nooo… Let’s put wings on these little fishies. I totally agree with that whole thing about how the villain always has to get some new advantage in sequels. (Aliens series and Terminator series are examples.) Sometimes it works – like in the second Aliens, instead of just one alien it was lots. And in the second Terminator, instead of just impersonating voices (major plot point in the first movie) it could impersonate people’s appearances. But they bloody lost the plot after that in both of those series. It’s always gotto be logical and I believe it should always be just one small change that makes the villain a little bit better. Again, nice link Shaz. I enjoyed it muchly. 🙂

Ok, I have to give credit where credit is due … my geek frequents cracked.com, and while I was watching reruns of My wife and kids this morning, he was checking out horror clips. I quickly became more interested in his take on morning entertainment … he’s still a “couch and/or passive and/or passenger blogger” (his words), so I blogged on his behalf.
